Rick-rat Posted August 20, 2021 Report Share Posted August 20, 2021 (edited) I managed to kill my battery today, didn't notice my brake lights were not going off, Fixed that problem with a little glue, a little tape and a penny. tried to start truck and got nothing, voltmeter was reading about 6 volts. Got a jump and took it in to have my battery tested, turns out it was a 12 year old battery that couldn't take anymore. Told them I wanted another one that would last as long as it did😀 This was a 50 month warranty battery from Les Schwab Edited August 20, 2021 by Rick-rat Quote Link to comment
KELMO Posted August 20, 2021 Report Share Posted August 20, 2021 My Frontier still has the original battery in it. The truck has a build date of 05/14. I think there well be a battery purchase in the near future. Quote Link to comment

MikeRL411 Posted August 20, 2021 Report Share Posted August 20, 2021 World's record ? The battery in the VW beetle that started up on first crank in "Planet of the Apes" after sitting in a cave forever. The Mama doll was a bonus. Quote Link to comment

No. The pair enter the cave, spot the car and a Mama doll. The doll proves that humans originally talked and expose the apes supression of known history. Quote Link to comment
